The Certified Hedge Fund Professional (CHP) Designation opened for registration a few weeks ago and there are only 185 spots left in the program. Market Folly readers receive an exclusive $50 discount to the CHP, so take advantage of it while you can. Once those spaces are gone, registration will close until Spring 2011.

The CHP is a designation like the CFA or CAIA, except it is targeted specifically at the hedge fund industry and can be completed 100% online within 6-12 months. Once you complete the program, you will have boosted your credibility/resume, enhanced your knowledge of the industry, and will gain access to a huge networking group of professionals. Not to mention, you can use their job placement services and recruiting connections. Additionally, you'll have lifetime access to HedgeFundPremium.com, as well as the webinars, study guides, and guidebooks. You can learn more about the CHP designation here.

Here are some testimonials from readers who have completed the CHP designation:

Andy R., Hedge Fund Manager: "As a former hedge fund manager looking to launch a new fund in the next year, I was intrigued by the prospect of increasing my knowledge and understanding of a variety of platforms, strategies, and new regulations that are likely to come through the CHP. I believe that this designation is long overdue way to separate the wheat from the chaff in an industry that, while currently in a down cycle, will remain as an integral component for financial planning and asset allocation in the future."

Sumeer Kapila, Technical Analyst: "(The) CHP Designation is a focused program, a program which details and provides inside information of the hedge fund industry's standards and strategies. The study guide provides you with the rules of the game, keeping you informed about the legal and regulatory perspective. This program helps you to keep the integrity of the market by raising industry standards."

Dominic Di Bernardo, Student: "I've taken this hedge fund certification program to expand my knowledge base of the hedge fund industry (there is little learned in school about this industry). I also believe that this designation will give me an edge over others trying to enter the industry. And lastly, I believe that I will be able to gain valuable contacts through this program, other designation candidates, and anyone else that stands behind this designation."
